The Blightosauruses are looking hungry! Yay!!
Great news!
I’ll believe it when they have it all knocked down…blight to our neighborhood. Not holding my breath on the new development.
Ominous photo!
This press release about the demolition was sent out Monday morning (5/13/13) by Nathan Voght of the Washtenaw County office of community and economic development, which manages the county’s brownfield redevelopment program:
FYI, the excavators that were in front of the mall have been moved around back. They are not not gone and they are still looking ready to devour some blight!
They tore down the old chain-link fence surrounding the lot and put a shiny new one up. They’ve started tearing up some of the parking lot. A few days ago there was a big hole at the Page Ave entrance that has since been filled in. Not entirely sure this is progress (especially the fence part) but at least there is activity.
